    "We have deconfliction plans with other airspace users," says Gemma Alcock. "At Waterloo, we are working to the control centre there. Network Rail are there. BTP are there. More drones covering an incident provide more information, which is good. So deconfliction is key, and we are all coordinated from the same location."
